Q: Hi I recently bought a menu from you - which is great.
However, i have been told that search engines will find it hard to crawl through the menu and find the other parts of my site.
Is it possible for me to create my menu to make it easier for search engines to crawl through?
A: Deluxe Menu is a search engine friendly menu since v1.12.
To create a search engine friendly menu you should add additional html code within your html page:
< div id="dmlinks">
< a href="http://deluxe-menu.com"> menu_item_text1< /a>
< a href="http://deluxe-tree.com"> menu_item_text2< /a>
...etc.
< /div>
To generate such a code use Deluxe Tuner application.
You can find this GUI in the trial package.
Run Tuner, load your menu and click Tools/Generate SE-friendly Code (F3).
Q: I need to have a horizontal menu and a vertical menu on the same page (obviously with different content). I did this as two separate "projects" in the tuner and gave them different names so that the files wouldn't step on each other. However, it looks like only the second menu works, though it does show both. I assume it has something to do with the variable dmWorkPath overriding the first value with the second. How can I have two menus each with different content on the same HTML page?
A: You can use as many menus as you want on the one page.
But you should call dmWorkPath parameter and dmenu.js file only once.
<!-- Deluxe Menu -->
<noscript><a href="http://deluxe-menu.com">Javascript Menu by Deluxe-Menu.com</a></noscript>
<script type="text/javascript"> var dmWorkPath = "menudir/";</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="menudir/dmenu.js"></script>

Q: I just noticed as well that I cannot change the spacing of the buttons.
Right now the buttons are tight together, how do I create a gap between each button in the link drop down menu?
A: You can paste the separator.
You should add separators between your items, use "Add separator" button on the mainwidow of Deluxe Tuner.
var menuItems = [
["FHSA","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Chapters","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["AZ Resources","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Double Butte Cemetery","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Surname List","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Helping Hands","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["-","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
["Book Fund Purchases","", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", ],
];

var separatorVHeight="21px";
Q: I'm testing the trial version and I'm having a little problem with the state saving. Everytime it navigates to another page, it does not save the state, even with
var tsaveState=1;
In fact, it actually opens up a different menu other than the one I originally clicked.
A: See, if you open pages (with menus) from different folder it means that you open different menus. So, when you change a state, for example, of the first menu within "newzap/" folder and then open another page with the menu within "newzap/learn/", browsers looks for another cookie file and can't find it and the second menu stays in a default state.
Try to set different
var tsavePrefix="menu1";
var tsavePrefix="menu2";
var tsavePrefix="menu3";
for different menus.
That should work.
